Three Bluebells can be more effective than one alone.

It may seem strange, but that it should be a certain number of the same motif to create a harmonious image, but after experimenting with some different groups, it feels like a good rule to follow. If you have a group or flock of something hand-pick three or a number that is divisible by three or any odd number. We symbolize it with the holy three.

As with all rules of photographic composition, you will want to violate the pattern to create an interest in the picture. It is important to learn

Break rules to create interest.

rules first and then trial and error may or may not cause effect. It is only when you know how to create a harmonious image that you can break the rules and create an interesting picture, shake a little in harmony.

Just as asymetri in the image creates an image of interest will be interesting if you violate the pattern your unique way. That is how you create your unique style. It requires a lot of practice and lots of experience. I believe in working out his style by imitating others then take it what you think is good and lift it even higher.

Much is about working with the image and develop your visual language. Experimenting with elements of the image to get the funds to be your own style. Let the rules be your guide but don´t let it be your ruler.
